You want to isolate the x-term from the constant term, so you can subtract x/3 and add 10. This gives you
... 4/9x -10 -x/3 +10 > x/3 -12 -x/3 +10
... 1/9x > -2 . . . . . . collect terms
Now, you can multiply by 9 to see the condition on x.
... 9(1/9x) > -2(9)
... x > -18
On the x-y plane, the graph of this will be a dashed line at x=-18, and the half-plane to the right of that line will be shaded.
On a number line, there will be an open circle at x=-18, and the number line to the right of that circle will be marked (bold, colored, shaded, whatever).
